Image Comics announced The Six Fingers, a new five-issue mini-series, from Dan Watters and Sumit Kumar, which is scheduled to arrive in February 2024.
Neo Novena archaeology student, Johannes Vale, has always been so very in control of his life. But when he commits a brutal murder, using the M.O. of an historic and notorious serial killer, everything begins to spiral out of control… primarily as Johannes doesn’t remember doing it.
What follows is a deadly cat-and-mouse game as Johannes seeks refuge in the rain-soaked streets of Neo Novena. He will stop at nothing to unravel the secrets and ciphers of what he did and why he did it; but each revelation only leads further into the dark heart of his future-metropolis and Johannes’ own heartbroken soul.
In a press release, series writer Dan Watters said, “This book is one we’ve been boiling up for years, a true labor of love. We’re doing something with it I’ve never seen in comics before, and I think readers are going to have a hell of a time uncovering the secrets and sins buried between its bloody pages.”
If you are paying attention, yes, this series is set in the same universe as the recent Ram V The One Hand mini-series.
The Six Fingers #1 arrives arrives on February 21, 2024.
